Blue Agave Restaurant Bar

I ordered for the 2^nd time from this place today! The delivery arrived in 15 minutes, food was hot and delicious, nice portions, and i found a coke which made my day!
Thank you Blue Agave for the free coke!
You earned my loyalty today!

Such great service, good food and a very clean restaurant! I found this on Unilocal when I was in BK and was impressed. Even the bathrooms are so clean and taken care of. Definitely worth the high rating. Ps. We had Abraham as our waiter and loved him!

I’ve been to dozens of Mexican Restaurants, and their burritos were soooo good. Everytime I visit Brooklyn I stop by and have one. I’m sure the other food is excellent as well. Ambience is super traditional, and it really takes me to and other world, but it’s still nice and clean.
Dying to go back.

Dined during cinco de mayo. Big mistake. All of the previous positive reviews were negated by my experience. Long wait for drinks and entrees. My food came out cold and was average. They are not able to handle a large volume of customers and don’t even apologize for the inconvenience.
Don’t believe all the positive reviews.
I will not be returning.

Such a beautiful experience! The guacamole is unreal super duper fresh and authentic ! I recommend the Mexican breakfast. Super friendly and wonderful service

Read some Unilocal reviews before heading out here for dinner. Place looks cozy, clean, and homey. We deicided to order the most popular dishes Beef Nachos, Carne Asada Burrito, and the Shrimp with Spinach. My friend saw the waitress brought out this colorful looking drink for another customers and wanted to try the same one. It was called the Agave Mojito, tasted refreshing and fruity. The burrito was tasty, nachos were in point, but the shrimp with Spinach was a bit lackluster

Delicious authentic Mexican food… I had a steak dish and it was cooked to perfection. Service was very friendly and on point. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Okay. So this place. I think my group had bad luck when we tried it. We had a total of 8 people. So that’s a lot of food. They had one cook and other tables to serve. It took them an hour to serve us but they gave us free drinks to make up a little. The waitress was very nice and apologetic. The dishes we ordered were good. No complaints in flavor. Everything was yummy. We were glad we ordered the guacamole because it’s made at he table and again we were all starving. I would like to come back and try this place again because I understand that sometimes stuff happens. So until next time!

Great little spot in the heart of Bensonhurst! Great food great drinks and service is also on point!

I can’t say enough good things about Blue Agave. We had tequila grilled shrimp, grilled steak salad, raw tuna with Serrano chiles, stuffed jalapeños, and tortilla soup. Everything was fresh and flavorful, but as an afterthought we got an order of chips and guacamole. They made the guacamole at the table and I was blown away. My wife eats guacamole often, but I’m not usually a fan and I aye more of it than she did. The only thing better than the food was the service. We only tried this restaurant because of a gift certificate, but we will certainly be back again.

The food was pretty good. We especially liked the nachos with beef. The burritos were missing «something», they lacked some flavor. However, this place is better than most of the traditional Mexican spots I have eaten at.
They make guacamole at your table and have a pretty decent selection.
My six year old daughter was cranky but she liked their chicken soup! (She asked for it, which surprised me, but more surprised that a cranky six year old enjoyed soup!)

Everything here is well presented like a five star restaurant. Taste amazing, my breakfast poached eggs were perfectly done. So the one star off is for the smaller potion size. Atmosphere is very cozy. When I was there around 11:30 we were the only customer not crowded. The place looks super clean. The wine is on the not so expensive most of them were $ 20 per bottle or $ 5 per glass. The menu selection is very interesting. Breakfast is all day. Flan was done not as smooth as I like it. Overall will come back again.

The lemon chicken was delicious and the drinks were nice!!! The great family dinner spot or cozy date spot.

This place is delicious! I had enchiladas coved in mole and it came with rice and beans. It was amazing. I finished it all. The food came out fast and hot.
My boyfriend got a burrito and it was made with very fresh ingredients. He really liked it, but the portion was small… he was still hungry when we left.
Our waiter was great. He helped me pick out what I wanted as my entrée.
I would go back… very authentic food!

The first time I ordered for delivery the food was ok. Second and third and actually last time, I ordered a chicken soup (came with no chicken) I also ordered a ceviche, the shrimp, calamari and salmon are totally uncooked mixed with cilantro. The rice is terrible and to make things worst the lady who picked up the phone has no manners. The delivery took an hour to come and I’m a few blocks away.
Disgusting.
Be wise safe your money and stay away from this place.

Nice family place or casual date place. Food is excellent, service is excellent. By the summer, there will be a line to get in.
Has a full bar too.
I kept it simple and had a burrito, my friend had their Salmon Agave. Both very good. It’s Saturday night. It should be packed. Get the word out!!!

Great addition to the neighborhood. I’ve been waiting for this place to obtain their liquor license & they finally did! I sure love to enjoy my food with a margarita. From what I hear, they’re working on expanding their menu for lunch and dinner. Brunch is also available next weekend. They offer Happy Hour from 1pm-​6pm. I’ve been here twice and service is superb. I do have to admit the food is so much better than the last time.

You enjoy eating delicious food?
You try this place and you will fall in love!
This new restaurant is the best thing that happened to this neighborhood!
Service was pleasant, food was delicious and savory.
The other comments seems to praise the tacos and guacamole but this is way more than that. My recommendation is to ask for help and tell them what you like and let them recommend their best according to your liking, if you are looking to get the best experience.
Our handsome friendly server named Pablo recommended the best dishes in variety flavors for us to truly experience the authentic Mexican cuisine with a elegant touch. I felt as if I was dining somewhere very fancy 5 star restaurant. The way each dish was presented and explained to us was great. Here are some dishes my friends and I enjoyed.
STUFFED JALAPENO
Jalapeño was cooked so a little less spicy, cut in half and stuffed with shrimp and its served on a mango sauce. It balanced the spiciness but not too sweet. It was a great 1^st dish to start with along with
SALMON JALAPENO
Salmon sashimi thinly sliced topped with jalapeño and served in a light citrus sauce and served with cilantro. I love all of the combination, some people are not fan of cilantro but I urge you to try it all together because it really balances the spicy.
BLUE AGAVE CEVICHE
This was a light delight but filling as the dish came with chopped seafood tossed with citrus sauce mixed with avocado, served on the shredded lettuce which gave nice crunch and a salad feel. This dish was my favorite, it had such delicate flavors and so tasty and Im not a big fan of any salad type dish but if you’re a salad or a ceviche lover I highly recommend it.
SEARED SCALLOPS
I love scallops and most places wont cook them right. Over cooked yuck!
This place I had tried one dish and was satisfied so I tried the other dish as well.
1. Seared scallops with spinach and crispy mushrooms
2. Seared scallops with jalapeño salsa
I recommend both
HORSE CARRIAGE
steak with yuca (?) fries and grilled corn with cotijja cheese and mexican spice.
this dish literally looks like a horse carriage. its beautifully presented. The corn is so good you just have to dive in a get your hands and face dirty cause you’ll forget to eat polite once you start enjoying this corn! I love corn and this was the best prepared corn I ever shoved in my face. The steak chef prepared as MR which is the best way to enjoy good beef but I’m sure you can request more cooked.
FLAN
for dessert we had the house made flan which was so smooth and melted in my mouth. It wasnt too sweet, just the right amount.
I gotta say this Chef definitely knows what he’s doing cause everyone loves great food. I learned there’s more to Mexican cuisine than just tacos and guacamole.
I will be coming back for sure, the unfortunate thing is I don’t live near enough but they are worth the trip.

Uodate. They have their liquor license. The owner just delivered my grubhub order…(dedication) and he let me know they have their liquor license and some good mezcals and tequilas great Mexican food
I scooped some great take out from here earlier this week. A trial run so to speak. Great food. Packaged right for pickup/​delivery.
Shrimp tacos. Great. Wish I had not devoured them before opening the container of cilantro, onion and lime + green sauce.
Carnitas large taco. Very nicely done.
Sopas Pollo. Very clean, fresh with great pieces of white meat chicken. Could almost be a meal. A bit greasy to go but not excessively so .
I’m very much looking to dining in, although no liquor license yet, the renovations they made to the previous bar in this space includes outlets near every table!

I live less than a block away from Blue Agave so today my partner and I decided to try out this new restaurant. The weather was super nice and we stepped in around 2pm so there were few people. The restaurant has nice décor and the wait staff are very nice and attentive.
We got the guacamole and chips. It’s $ 7 but boy is it worth it! The amount of (fresh, warm) chips in that basket was neverending. There was a good amount if guac provided, too! The waiter also brought us a small ramekin of their homemade salsa. Very nice.
Partner got beef steak quesadillas and I got the enchiladas. I had a bite of the quesadillas and the meat was tender and the bite was very flavorful!
The enchilada fillings were pork carnitas, oaxaca cheese, and chicken (one type of filling for each of the three wrapped corn tortillas). My favorites were the pork and cheese! Pork was very tasty and tender, and the cheese one was lovely. I was simply too full by the time I worked my way to the chicken one so I didn’t enjoy it as much, but overall the dish was good. It also came with rice and beans! Our dishes were just under $ 13 each.
The portion sizes are big! It seems pricey, but if you share or bring home leftovers, it’s affordable for the quality of food and portion. Good to bring a small group of friends for sure. I heard good things about the fajitas, and I know now they do good steak, so next time I will share the fajitas with a friend and def get guacamole again. A nice addition to the neighborhood :)
Oh, and they have good music! They played Mexican pop/​rock.
